We guarantee data security

As the data processing manager in charge of the user data in the "MedRi" application, the Medicinski fakultet u Rijeci (hereinafter: MedRi) is obligated to protect the personal data of its users (students, employees and lecturers). Accordingly, MedRi collects only necessary and basic user data that are required to provide services regarding the use of the MedRi application, but also to fulfil our users’ expectations.

Using the application

Application access

Students, lecturers and employees use their user data to access the application. No information is available to visitors to this web application without user data.

GPS attendance tracker

We do NOT store the user’s GPS location. The GPS location is compared at the user’s request, with a clearly marked action. The application may or may not (depending on the configuration settings of the lecture room) confirm attendance at a lecture/practical/seminar using the GPS tracking system. Pressing the “Present” button opens the GPS coordinates finder of the user’s device. The GPS coordinates sent from the device are compared with the approximate coordinates of the lecture room. If the student’s location is detected near the reference GPS coordinates of the lecture room, then the student is marked as present at that lecture/practical/seminar. GPS coordinates sent from the user’s device are not recorded in the database.
Apart from this attendance tracking action, the GPS coordinates are not retrieved in any other way.

Student evaluation of lectures/practicals/seminars/lecturers

The student can grade a lecture/practical/seminar/lecturer by clicking on the button at the bottom of each class. The button appears only if the student is present in class or has requested their presence in class to be verified. The evaluation deadline is 1440 minutes after the end of class. These collected data are anonymous, and employees don’t have insight into which student gave which grade. The report that is available to the employees of the institution is a general report by course/lecturer and contains the overall grade.

Surveys

At the end of the course, a survey may be opened for student evaluation of the course and/or lecturer. These surveys are filled out by students. Surveys are anonymous and employees cannot see which student filled out which survey.

Who can see other user’s personal data?

The student can see only their own personal data. The lecturer can see the personal data of all students, lecturers and employees. Everyone (whether they are a student or a lecturer) can always see the other user’s name, surname, academic title, profession and profile photo.
